CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
We recommend cleaning the hot water dispenser regularly, e.g. once per month. This is not only beneficial for the life span of
the appliance, but also ensures optimum use and, of course, nice water. Prior to cleaning, always remove the plug from the wall
socket and allow the appliance to cool down.
CLEANING
Regularly wipe the outside with a damp cloth.
Never use detergents or abrasive cleaning agents!
Clean separate components
such as the drip tray and cup grille with warm water and a mild washing-up liquid. Dry these components thoroughly.
After cleaning the hot water dispenser, also remove any excess water via the water drain
at the bottom. Unscrew the rubber cap
[12]
of the water drain at the bottom of the appliance
and allow the excess water to run out of the appliance above the sink. Properly re-tighten
the rubber cap. Attach the separate components and the appliance will be ready for use again.
REPLACING THE WATER FILTER
After every 150 litres of water, the water filter must be replaced. In case of moderate use,
this will be about 3 times per year. A new water filter is available via the Tomado webshop.
DE-SCALING
In spite of using a water filter, it is necessary to de-scale the appliance each month.
Also if the flow speed of the water is not as it was, the appliance may have to be de-scaled.
Use a de-scaling agent without chemicals, such as kitchen grade vinegar or citric acid.
•
Fill the water reservoir with 2 litres of water and add 50 ml of de-scaling agent.
• Place a jug or large mug under the water outlet on the cup grille.
•
Press the ON/OFF button twice to switch on the appliance.
- When pressed twice, the indicator led lights up in green and the appliance taps hot water continuously until you switch
it off again.
•
After a few seconds, there is hot water coming out of the water outlet.
•
Press the ON/OFF button once more to stop the water flow when the jug or mug is full. Empty the jug in the sink and place
it back under the water outlet.
•
Repeat this until the water reservoir with de-scaling agent is empty.
•
Fill the water reservoir with clean water and allow all this water to flow through the appliance, in the same way
as described above.
•
Fill the appliance once more with clean water.
• The hot water dispenser is ready for use again.
TIP:
After every 10 hours of use, the green indicator led starts to flash to remind you to de-scale the appliance. After de-scaling,
hold down the ON/OFF button for 5 seconds to stop the green indicator led from flashing.
When the reservoir is empty, the indicator led starts to flash in blue and green alternately. Refill the water reservoir with fresh
cold water.
Caution:
the water and steam are hot and could cause burns in case of contact with your skin.
EMPTYING THE DRIP TRAY
Remove the drip tray when it is becoming full and empty it above the sink.
1. Remove the cup grille.
2. Place one hand on the appliance and press the drip tray upwards with your other hand in order to snap it loose.
3. Empty the drip tray above the sink and rinse it.
4.
Snap the drip tray in place again on the top or bottom ridges.
